Its been a while since I posted any of my itininery - I've been held up trying to figure out DHS, so I'm moving on and working on Epcot now.
We'll be spending our last 2 days in Epcot, and topping it off with Illuminations on our last night there.
Day 8: Epcot
Day one of Epcot we plan to spend all day at the park and head out after dinner.
-AM: FUTURE WORLD
I’d like to spend this first morning hitting the big rides.
-FP Soarin, Go to Test Track and ride it. Do Spaceship earth. Not sure about Mission Space – I’ve heard to many mixed reviews about motion sickness – Grumpy has a tendency to get dizzy quite easily and has had episodes of vertigo in the past, I don’t think he’ll want to do this one. I’d do the mild side but am a little worried about that side too – I just don’t want anyone to feel sick afterward, especially the kids, so at this point I’m leaning toward skipping it.
-I want to lunch at the Seasons. Heard great things about it and have to check it out.
-If we can get the big rides done in the morning and then do character greetings that would probably fill up our morning. If there is additional time, we can check out The Land or the Living Seas pavillions.
-PM: WORLD SHOWCASE
I find myself very excited to tour the world showcase and I want to do it on our first Epcot day. I was a little worried at first about it being boring for the kids, but I think they will really like it and enjoy it too. We plan to really just go through each country and take our time. We will start in Mexico and follow the loop around. We plan to do Grand Fiesta in Mexico and do Malestrom in Norway, but don’t plan to watch any of the other shows/movies in the other countries, unless we come across some of the street performers and such.
In each country we’ll stop to do the KidCot station and characters, shop around a little, and we were thinking of picking up candy from each country, since we can’t go crazy drinking around the world! I know Grumpy wants a beer from Germany (he as stationed in Germany when we was like 18 and had many-a-beer there), and I’ll probably pick up a beverage for myself along the way. But I’m hoping for a casual afternoon, and I want to go back to Mexico for dinner at Cantina del San Angel, I love Mexican food…and a margarita!
Head back to Pop after dinner for an early bedtime…tomorrow will be our last day and another late night!
Day 9: Epcot Day 2
Day 2 of Epcot is mostly for all of the other attractions there. We may ride some of the main rides again if we want to, but otherwise we want to hit:
-Innoventions East & West
-Imagination – Figment, Kodak Lab
-The Living Seas – Nemo, Turtle Talk
-The Land – Living with the Land
-Will do the KitCot stops here too
-Do Lunch at either Electric Umbrella or maybe Seasons again, depends on where we are and when.
I’m hoping we can finish up here in the mid-afternoon and return to our hotel for a nap or some time to relax, maybe start packing a bit. We’d come back after dinner to get a spot for Illuminations! I’m so excited to see Illuminations on our last night in WDW.
And that will be it! We'll be heading out the next morning from MCO on an 8:30am flight back home…it will be a very early morning! We’ll arrive back to MKE about 11am, so hopefully we can be back on the road heading home around noon. That will get us home about 2pm on Sunday. And that’s it! Our first official family vacation will be over! Let the scrapbooking marathon begin!!!
